Hey dude,
I have done it in the past and so far it has worked. I don't know if works in all states but it does in North Carolina. As for the cop in Atlanta - you are just like every other cop that I have ever run into. They are all "know it alls" and think because they wear a badge they have all the answers to every question. Don't get me wrong I admire and appreciate everything you do for the public but you don't need to be a know it all.

I know there are those out there that will disagree.. but 97mph can be driven safely with a driver that knows what he is doing especially in a Z.
"traffic" can mean alot of things, he didn't specify if it was thick, or just a few scattered cars. Believe me, I agree with you on him needing to just pay the ticket and be done with it, the cop was very nice, but I hate seeing these posts that bash people for how fast they drive.

i havnt posted in a while..but now im forced to
like i said...i didnt have to switch lanes..and i didnt have to brake hard
therefore traffic was moving nicely...there was a little strip with no cars in front of me..so i stepped on it...i was already going 75...so i got to 97 pretty fast
end of story
if you think 97 is f**n retarted then buy a kia sephia

I drive within 10MPH of the speed limit on roads. I save excessive speed for the track.
Instead of telling me I need to get a Kia because I don't want to drive recklessly like yourself, I suggest you learn to control your immature need to mash the gas pedal when other people are around.
You're being pretty bold to insinuate that I'm wrong, or that 25MPH faster than an already liberal speed is safe. You have absolutely NO IDEA what kind of factors can come into play on the open road -- a tire blowout, another car swerving out of control -- so telling me to either "get a kia or drive wrecklessly" is pretty idiotic. Personally I care enough about myself, other people, and my 30,000 dollar investment not to pull this kind of **** routinely.
You more than deserve the ticket.

There is a big difference between speeding and reckless driving. I catagorize talking on the phone, talking to other people in the car, watching TV, mindless tailgating, driving in other's blind spots, etc as "reckless". People who do not have their full attention on the road are much more reckless than those who have onehelluva sports car speeding with total concentration on the road.
Furthermore, in my opion I am much less likely to get in a reck, or cause a reck, If I am driving faster than traffic. The worst thing a person can do is drive the same speed as others. All sense of speed is lost and cars tend to get lost in blind spots. People tend to become miopic and dont pay attention to what is going on. More often than not freeway accidents occur for these reasons.
BUT the bottom line is that if you break the law your responsible for the consequences. So pay your ticket and be done with it. AND the left lane is a passing lane so get the h*ll out of it if your not passing.

nicely put pulpz....its the slow drivers that make me want to go faster
i dont see the need to slow EVERYONE on the road
regardless of the fact that we want to go over the speedlimit
if you really wanted to help your cause you would get in the right lane..
and syfon..i dont know why this is getting personal
but you are talking as if you saw me that day....IT was the safest driving ever...NO ONE was in danger...NO ONE got hurt01...that wasnt the case at all....go 90 one time..youll see that its not as fast as you think it is

Havabooz,
Do you have a pic of your Z? I'm thinking about painting the calipers on my SS enth red also. I have a friend that has a silver S2000 and his are painted. It looks really sharp.

PulpZ:
I couldn't agree more on all counts.
One thing that bothers me, is people that don't use turnouts on one lane HWYs, if I saw sombody get behind me that wanted to go faster than I did.. I sure as hell would pull over and let them by.. it takes seconds and makes everybody happy.
But I run in to @$$holes that think they own the road.. I tell you, it's people like that, that cause accidents, not the person focused on driving.
Meh, oh well.
